Therefore there does not seem to be any doubt that fertilizing will increase yields economically. The herbage on the fertilized pasture was also much more valuable as it was made up largely of nutritious grasses, and clovers, while the herbage on the unfertilized pasture was composed of unpalatable grasses and weeds. Pastures that are badly run down and contain mostly weeds may prove too expensive to bring back to a high state of fertility. In such cases, it may be well to fertilize a small area at the start to see whether wild white clover can be made to grow. Liming may also be necessary to encourage the clover. Unless one can get wild white clover to grow, pasture fertili zation will not give very economical returns. The following applications have given good results at the Frederiction Station: Where no white cloyer is pre sent, a complete fertilizer is necessary to give best results. A yearly appli cation of 100 pounds nitrate of soda with 280 pounds superphosphate and 100 pounds muriate of potash per acre every three years usually gives good returns. This should be continued un til a thick turf of wild white clover and Kentucky blue grass has been es tablished. Once this turf is establish ed,. one may dispense with the nitro gen and with the years. maintain 'fairly good yields minerals alone, every three DIED MALOTT—Jn San .Jose Hospital, California, on April 7th, 1939,,Annie Wade Malott, daughter of the late George and Anna Wade,- formerly of Wingham, and widow of the late Howard Malott.
